Hi - I’m Gaby!
A Chicago-based Michigander living with her Havanese pup, Leo, in the city. With a strong background as a ballet dancer, I have always had a passion for movement, health & wellness. In 2015, I received my 200 hr Registered Yoga Teacher certification while studying Advertising & Marketing at Michigan State University. To continue my education, I enrolled with IIN to become a holistic nutritionist and help others achieve their goals & feel amazing.
My personal health and wellness journey began in college when I decided to switch my diet to fully raw plant based. A lot of my friends and family were practicing vegans and I thought it would work great for me as well and for awhile, it did. But after a year, my body began to showcase negative side affects - I began losing my hair, developing ovarian cysts and severe cystic acne. My doctors told me that nothing was wrong with me and that I was just stressed….that’s when I met with a Naturopath, Acupuncturist and Functional Medicine Doctor. By making changes to my diet, exercise routine, products and developing a stress management plan I was able to balance my hormones and realign my health.
Throughout the years, I have continued to work with Acupuncturists, Functional Medicine Doctors and Holistic Nutritionists alongside my amazing team of Western Medicine Doctors at Northwestern. I have removed labels from my diet & lifestyle and focus on practices that allow me to feel my absolute best. Throughout my own journey, I have learned the importance of balancing both Eastern & Western medicine.
As a holistic Nutrition Health Coach, I hope to offer my services through my own practice and work alongside Medical Spas & specialists to empower women and men to take charge of their lives and achieve their goals. I’m excited to connect with people who are looking for inspiration, motivation and who are interested in changing their habits to live a healthy, fulfilling and intentional life through integrative practices.
When I am not in the kitchen cooking a new recipe, I have a love for being outdoors, dancing and traveling. I also enjoy practicing yoga, listening to podcasts, going to concerts and being with my friends and family. I believe the Universe is always working in our favor. The Universe is always protecting our energy - we just have to be in tuned with its’ energy, ourselves and the energy around us to allow the magic to happen.
